sickofreadingrubbish Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Only 1 definite murder? Ok it was 2 people in one incident The murders were terrible but just as bad was the way the Thais handled the case. Lawless and corrupt systems are not looked to highly upon in civilized countries. The only difference between Thailand and elsewhere. Everyone knows it happens. Everywhere else people like to think it doesn't happen. Doesn't make it right btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only posted once , you told me that yesterday. Did you contact her ? However to really verify this she needs to post something on her own FB page, Yes, I have contacted her privately and she is genuine. Are you the only person from this forum to contact the deceased's alleged sister? Did this person confirm that she was the poster who allegedly made a couple of posts on here, then after many questioned their validity, went to ground? Now I am not doubting you contacted someone but how are you able to verify that the person you contacted is who she says she is and did you do this personally or via an email or a FB contact.? Sorry about being cynical but just because you tell us that you contacted a female, who is purporting to be the deceased's sister, it does not give credence to what you are telling this forum. didn't the bbc cover both stories, do you think they just cut and paste from facebook, show a little respect and move on from this nonsense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HooHaa Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 I don't think there is a serial killer as such, I think there is a gang of serial Thai thugs who are targeting young innocent western women for sex and if they are rejected they are then resorting to rape and murder and also murdering any male farang that gets in their way or tries to interfere, that is what I honestly believe In my opinion you've hit the nail squarely on the head there Smedly . so where is the woman in this case then?

smedly Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 The problem with Koh Tao and the deaths that occure there is that many people do not believe the police, there are too many questions left unanswered. Yes an autopsy was carried out and the police concluded that he drowned, I have no doubt that is possibly true, but a family member has said that Luke had bruising on his arms - that alone indicates to me that the police version of events is doubtful, when an autopsy is done you must consider everything (all injuries) to reach a conclusion, you simply cannot ignore stuff because it wouldn't fit with the story, couple that with the missing cctv footage and the lack of a witness to this supposed bravado act and it leaves more questions than answers, just like the puncture wounds that were clearly seen on David Millar that were ignored without explanation This family should have insisted that the CIFS examined the body and published a full report leaving nothing out, as it stands it seems that certain injuries (no small detail) have been left unreported/unexplained/ignored by officials and either the police or the Thai coronor (or both) have done this with intent I await to hear the results from a trusted autopsy that will be carried out in the UK before I am anywhere near conviced that this mans death was an accident Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used to get blokes turn up for work after a weekend looking like they had a good kicking. Never was due to violence. Falling into bushes, storm drains, down steps etc. One bloke had two black eyes and stitches in a nasty gash on his forehead. He tripped and caught his head on the edge of a kerbstone, luckily someone found him and got medical attention. So, can it happen innocently? Definitely.

stephenterry Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Agree, however this is the point of smedly post. The absence of any explanation other than drowning together with a lack of Cctv or witnesses is reason enough for the family to request more information from the investigation. Coupled with that, the reputation of the Rtp on koh tao is not credible is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Si Thea01 Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 smedly Quote>"didn't the bbc cover both stories, do you think they just cut and paste from facebook, show a little respect and move on from this nonsense<End quote Asking legimate questions of another poster is nonsense is it? No one was suggesting a cut and paste, only you I see but if you accept everything you read or are told by a single person, then wouldn't you question the validity? No, you wouldn't would you, Mr. Gullible? As for telling anyone to move on, maybe you should take you own advice, then let IslandLover answer should he be inclined to do so. What is the BBC covering two matters going to show me? I thought there was only one incident that we were dealing with in this post or are you trying to link this incident with that relating to the Burnmese 2. If this is the case, then why? So with your reference to the BBC are you telling me that in their reports I will be able to see that they have substantiated, beyond any doubt, that IslandLover contacted the sister, confirmed her bona fides and the validity of everything stated by her. As for showing respect, please show me how questioning the validity of another's statement shows disrespect to anyone? There is absoutely nothing disprectful, implied or otherwise, so please try not reading into something, something that is not there. I just noted your last response. How do you know that a woman was involved and that she could easily be a Thai. Have I missed something or is this just another one of your hypothesis. But considering it has been written as a factual involvement (The woman involved) can you explain how this came to the fore? Looking forward to your response.

But this one mightn't have even involved a woman: "Where you from brother?" "England" "What you name" "Luke Miller.
